"He is not cunning, he is indeed outstanding in all aspects, and you can feel it from the way he fights zombies."
"Yes, it should be the well-trained kind, whether it's mental or physical quality, it all surpasses us ordinary people."
"We have no way to compare with him."
"The first place past the opposite shore is not much of a big deal, the lottery is not necessarily the biggest prize."
"Yes, we all still have a chance."
After some discussion among the people, the psychology was balanced for the time being.
...
Mallory has not received professional training and is not of the well-trained kind.
Just now, he was also just gambling that after the smelly liquid on his body was washed away by the rain, he would definitely be mobbed and bitten to death by the zombies.
That's why he rushed down the river and didn't expect to be successfully suspended on the steel beam below the big iron bridge.
However, the length of the iron bridge is more than a thousand meters.
Not professionally trained personnel, climbing over by two arms is not an easy task.
Mallory at the beginning of the time to climb quickly, ten minutes to rest once.
But later, after the force is exhausted, arm soreness, every one or two minutes, can not continue to move forward.
As he climbed, more and more zombies gathered in the river below the bridge, which was not very deep at all, and they were waiting for Mallory to make a mistake and fall off the big iron bridge and have a good meal.
Mallory had to be more careful, feeling the strength is not enough, in advance of the belt loop in the steel beam buckle, so as not to run out of even the strength to buckle the belt are not the degree.
As Mallory marched two-thirds of the way to the big iron bridge, the figures of No. 5 and No. 3 appeared behind him.
No. 5 and No. 3 reborn and set off again, following Mallory's method of trying to climb from under the bridge to the other side, it is clear that after discussion, they found that this may be relatively safe, and may be the fastest way to reach the other side, but also the design of the scene of the writers left them the way through.
But they used to suspend the body is not all belts, and dress pants braided into a cloth rope.
They have seven people, the scene is not so many belts available, can only put the zombie clothes and pants also to use.
...
Another hour passed.
Mallory finally arrived at the end of the big iron bridge.
Below the body is no longer the river, but the river bank.
However, the future is still uncertain.
Getting to the shore is still a big problem, after the shore to find a safe house on the other side of the river, is another big problem.
At this moment, below his body, there are still dozens of unrelenting zombies gathered, wanting to wait for him to come down and then enjoy a meal.
The rest of the walkers in the river were drawn to the others, including #5 and #3, who had climbed halfway up the big iron bridge, and #2 and #4, who had also finally come underneath it behind them.
When Mallory turned back to watch his competitors, No. 3 suddenly fell from the bottom of the big iron bridge, and then in a burst of screams, by the zombies gathered under the bridge to tear up and eat alive.
No. 3 fell because ... he used the fabric braided rope in the steel beam friction more and more serious, finally in his again hanging body rest when completely broken, caught off guard and fell down.
No. 3's fall and screams attracted the attention of dozens of zombies gathered under Mallory, they instinctively jumped back into the river and swam toward the center of the river, leaving Mallory's body under the riverbank temporarily formed a corpse-free safe area.
It's not all corpse-free, there are two broken legs lying on the ground walking inconvenience zombies.
Mallory, who had recovered a lot of his strength, climbed down the steel frame and took advantage of the fact that a large number of zombies had not yet returned, grabbed the neck of a legless zombie and smashed its head wildly into the head of the other legless zombie.
The two zombie heads did not immediately shatter as they smashed against each other, but their necks were unable to withstand the tremendous force of the impact and broke apart one after another before they fell helplessly to the ground together.
"No. 3 death."
The voice of the commentary sounded.
The dozens of zombies that were attracted away by No. 3 just now were attracted by the noise Mallory made and began to return, hissing and swimming back towards the shore embankment.
At the same time, many of the walkers on the other side of the street also looked this way and immediately climbed over the not too high river bank guardrail and rushed towards Mallory.
Mallory recklessly grabbed the stomachs of two walkers on the ground, and then directly picked up their bodies, snapping their broken intestines and bellies directly onto their backs and heads, taking a walker bath.
When a large number of walkers gathered around Mallory, Mallory's entire body was already covered with stinking liquid.
When Mallory stood up like a zombie, the zombies that gathered around lost their human taste and their eyes became vacant and blank again, already oblivious to Mallory.
This is a tasteful performance, requiring extremely strong mental qualities.
Mallory learned to sway like a zombie, and slowly swayed out of the crowd of zombies.
Then slowly climbed over the riverbank parapet to the opposite side of the street.
The street was lined with houses connected one to the other, some with open doors, some with closed doors.
There was no hint as to which one was the safe house.
Although the sky was now clear again, the director of the inner gloom could come in a downpour any time within minutes.
If another downpour came at this time, Mallory would have lost all his previous work.
So, although he was close to the finish line and victory, he was always at risk of starting over and falling behind everyone else if he couldn't find a safe house soon.
Mallory walked into the crowded street corpses, observing these houses on the street one by one while learning from the zombies who kept swaying.
Those that are closed are extremely difficult to get into, and forcing the door open is likely to attract the attention of the corpses.
So Mallory decided to put them in the back and explore those houses with open doors first.
Soon, a restaurant diagonally across the street, about a few dozen meters away, caught his eye.
The door of the restaurant was wide open, but it was different from other houses with wide open doors.
There wasn't a single zombie inside the restaurant.
At least from Mallory's current perspective, there really are no walkers.
In the middle of this scene, the safe house is set up in such a way that walkers cannot enter.
So, it is very likely that this restaurant is a safe house.
Mallory used very slow movements in the street flowerbeds to pick up two stones in his arms, and then moved step by step to the restaurant across the street, and gradually came to the center of the street.
The center of the street is full of zombies and it is extremely difficult to walk through.
At this time, the incomparably clear sky suddenly turned cloudy.
